Penshurst Place has been the seat of the Sidney family since 1552, and is still owned by Philip Sidney, Viscount de l’Isle. Its history goes back even before that to the 13th century when the estate was acquired by Sir Stephen de Penchester. In the succeeding centuries Henry VIII was entertained here, Queen Elizabeth I visited often and Sir Philip Sidney, the Elizabethan poet and soldier, was an owner. The estate prospered until the 18th century when it fell into decline, and efforts to revive it began in 1818. Further restoration work was needed after 1945 and this fell to the present owner’s father who resurrected it to the building we see today. Various centuries have left their mark. The 14th century Baron’s Hall is considered the best preserved of this type of domestic architecture in England. The 17th century Long Gallery with its original panelling was constructed by the brother of Sir Philip Sidney. The state dining room, audience room and tapestry room are full of portraits and furnishings. Also to be visited are the gardens, covering 11 acres and one of the oldest in the country. The Italian garden survives from the Elizabethan era, and in the 19th century the gardens were divided into rooms with individual styles. Another attraction is the Toy Museum, opened in 1970. Opening hours for 2008 are daily from 21 March to 2 November 10.30am to 6pm for the grounds and 12 noon to 4pm for the house. There is a tea room, opening times 10.30am to 5pm.
